Back to 1972 and here's another art school drawing of the live model. I'm not sure where this session took place but it was probably among the members of my mother's life drawing group. A life drawing session starts with the model taking a series of quick poses for a minute or so, then longer ones of 10-15 minutes. The last hour of drawing is all one pose and this one was probably one of these because I could get a lot of detail and shading. Art modeling is an art unto itself and even back in 1972 models were paid well.
